Against Russia, the US is doing a better job defensively, holding Russia to under 20 in the first qtr.
Offensive woes so far.

Most of it, anyway. Like I said earlier, it was more offensive woes if anything vs. Russia.
US needs to cement their half-court offense during the Australia match to make sure it gels come Olympics.

i bet it's an awesome feeling to be a coach for an olympic team, but having to deal with all those monster ego's must be tough.....

Kobe has been offered a deal like that to play overseas and he is more likely to go play over there once his contract with the Lakers is over....

Agree, if its close it will be at the beginning of the game when its 0-0, then after that the US will seal the deal.
